Facehooked

Acquaintances of FrogN have been trying to get her to create a facebook account for a while. The most recent attempt was made by FrogN's mother's ex-band director, an individual well into his seventies, while at the visitation for a church member who had passed away. His argument was that, "you don't have to post anything yourself, but this way you can know who's doing what and going where all the time." Now, "all the time" sounds a bit extreme at first, but rest assured that this is NOT an exaggeration.
For example, while FrogN was at the home of a friend who had a facebook account, another friend posted the following:

"Getting hungry."

"On my way to Jack's."

"Made it."

"Yum. Fries."

FrogN must now question, does anyone care? Most of the things written upon this site, does anyone care about them? Almost assuredly not. FrogN has come to the conclusion that, in addition to lacking both the time and the patience to maintain a facebook account, FrogN cannot because, and listen carefully, FrogN has a life! That is correct; FrogN goes places and does things and is, therefore, much too busy going to these places and doing these things to write about them. FrogN pleads with her readers, please, please live real lives! Or, if not able to fulfill that request, at least stop pestering FrogN! Now, FrogN shall go and do things and may or may not feel the urge to write about them upon her blog. FrogN hopes that her readers do not assume that FrogN has ceased to exist simply because she has not written in excruciatingly painful detail the events of her day to day routine. Farewell.
